We played, we laughed, we got our hands in the dirt, handled some chickens, and even got to use a few power tools! 🐥🌱🔨

It may have been a small crew today, but it was definitely a mighty one—with smiles all around and plenty of learning, laughter, and hands-on fun!

A huge thank you to our incredible Stanley Agricultural Society volunteers, the Provincial Champion Stanley Consolidated School Envirothon Team, and Homestead of Tavis for sharing their time, knowledge, and enthusiasm to make today fun.

🐴Here We Grow Again!🌾

The Stanley Fair is proud to announce the return of the Draft Horse Program for 2026 — back for the first time in almost 30 years!

From the tradition, skill, and pride that draft horses bring to the fairgrounds, we’re excited to welcome this beloved agricultural showcase back to the Stanley Fair.

Whether you grew up watching the draft horses or will be seeing them for the very first time, 2026 is shaping up to be a historic year at the fairgrounds. Registration will be available online through our website, with more details, classes, and announcements coming soon!

A special thank you to the Bayview Kubota Bayview Kenworth and the Clydesdale Horse Association of Canada for helping support the return of this exciting program to the Stanley Fair.
